dripping the words from my soul
holding myself
afraid to fall
excited to be caught
by your warmth
around me
The duality that is me
strong and fragile
open and hidden
could you make sense of it all
Of everything that is me

The fierceness of your heart
makes me tremble
Because when you love
it’s all consuming
thundering over me
through me
and within me
Shaking me to my core
Searching out my soul
and latching on
with a dark protectiveness
that has me shivering
with complete surrender

Can I rest my head upon your shoulder
drift to sleep to the steady beating of your heart
Safely tucked away within the warmth of your arms
knowing you’ll be there to kiss me to sleep
and finally silence my racing mind.

Whoever made passion wrong
Didn’t understand the force of life
The spirits ambrosia
The bodies sustenance
The hearts desire
Is in need of passionate kisses
Passionate embraces
Passionate conversations
and passionate love
